Geometric Area & Volume Calculator (2D & 3D)
Calculate areas, volumes and related dimensions with exact expressions, decimal values, formulas and rotatable solid wireframes.
About this geometric area & volume calculator (2d & 3d)
Calculate areas, volumes and related dimensions with exact expressions, decimal values, formulas and rotatable solid wireframes Computes exact algebraic and numerical metrics directly in your browser using IEEE 754 precision without round-trip latency.
Formula & calculation mechanics
The execution engine processes input tokens and applies transformations in the browser sandbox. Specifically, Triangles use three sides and strict triangle inequalities. A trapezoid has vertices (0,0), (a,0), (offset+b,h), (offset,h): a,b,h>0; signed offset is a coordinate, not a length. Solids are right solids. The frustum has aligned, concentric, similar regular n-gon bases, 3≤n≤100, 0<b≤a; a=b is a prism. Oblique or irregular frusta are not represented. Sphere results refer to a whole sphere. Sector θ is in radians, 0<θ≤2π; at 2π the perimeter is the circle circumference.

Domain range & precision boundaries
Enter integers, point decimals, e notation or fractions; optionally multiply by π (pi): 3, 1/2, 3π/2, 0.5*pi. No spaces inside an expression. Up to 64 UTF-16 code units and 12 digits per fraction component including exponent digits. Dimensions: 10⁻¹²…10¹² in one common unit; all must be positive. Lengths use that unit, areas its square and volumes its cube. Exact mode retains π, fractions, square roots and tan(π/n); expressions need not be fully simplified. Decimal mode is a binary64 approximation rounded to 12 significant digits. Symbolic formulas use exact operations; polygon trigonometric evaluation and perspective geometry are approximate. Common length units are not converted automatically. Drag the model or use the rotation and tilt sliders (keyboard arrows supported). Reset restores 30° rotation and 20° tilt. All edges remain visible; curves are polygonal display approximations. The model is uniformly scaled to fit, so extreme aspect ratios can look flat. This is a visual aid, not a CAD or engineering tolerance certificate. Calculations run locally after loading and work offline. No added calculation dependency, external service, fee or usage quota.
